I did a similar route on my battered '88 CBR400 in 2004 and loved it.
Would love to go back again .
You are one of the reasons, along with Baron Von Grumble, that I’ve got back into bikes at 54 after a 16 year lay off. Got a two year old VFR800F and a 1973 Bonny in my garage. Very happy. Thank you...!
Cool
Due to Covid ruining my plans yet again, I've revisited this series which is helping me plan a last minute Scotland trip instead. Thanks so much.
Glad to help!
Beautiful. Best 30 minutes of my day so far. Living vicariously through TMF.
Thanks!
“They tend to travel in clumps!” Now that cracked me up! I’m up in New Hampshire again and got to spend 3 days here for bike week. Sitting in my room watching this series and really enjoying it. Just upgraded to the GoPro Hero 7 Black and loving the quality of it. I had bought the Rylo 360 and had it on the front of my bike for a track day run but it overheated and shut off and I didn’t notice it so I missed getting footage of that. Didn’t know it had overheating issues. So I’ll keep it but film it in the open case now. Had it in the full protection case. So I went to Best Buy and got the GoPro on sale for $329 USD. I so wish I had it on track day. Of well. Lesson learned. Thanks for the videos. Relaxing to watch!
Thanks for watching....
Found this video just before my Scottish trip this year and so glad I did as the road round Mull was one of the best of the trip
This is the true spirit of biking.
Absolutely loving the videos and it just doesn't get any better than this.
Awesome installment. Love the drone footage, adds enjoyable perspective and wonderful panoramas. Always enjoy Friday's uploads for an wonderful way to spend eating my lunch here in the USA.
awesome, can't wait for the next vid! keep them going.
The drone shots were rather good. Love these Scottish adventures, such a beautiful country.
Thanks Daren, much more droneage to come!
Always a pleasure to watch the travel videos but I'm blown away by your Drone footage....and the music compliments it beautifully.
Awesome place, thanks for the tour.
Such a beautiful part of the world! Looks like you had decent weather too, which makes all the difference. Eagerly awaiting part 3, great stuff TMF!!
Great vlog, You are really stepping up your game. Good job. Looking forward to the next one, can't wait!
"Wow" TMF what a beautiful place it had everything, white vans, MacDonalds on the hoof,and some not to shabby drone footage.
Good job looking forward to next episode.
Another great video TMF, thank you. Impressive drone flying as well. Looking forward to the next instalment.
Nice droneage. You're so modest: the telescopists/binocularists were there to witness the passing of the lesser spotted TMF on it's annual migrations through the western isles. Nicely done. Thanks.
I never thought of that! :0)
wow what a superb adventure and Scotland is so beautiful look forward to the next instalment
Congratulations TMF, you've managed to turn me green with envy yet again. As you know I love the Western side of Scotland. Watching you on this adventure just reinforces my opinion. You are a lucky man Sir. Thanks for sharing 😊
Can't think of anyone better Than TMF at what he does , great video, great commentary, well done once again !!!
Absolutely stunning, we are so lucky , it's on our doorstep.
Added to bucket list roll on next episode 👍
That was indeed a beautiful drive. I will never get there now, so your trip was like mine. Looking fprward to the next installment.Thanks for sharing. Stay safe.
My favourite TMF so far. Almost made me cry it was so perfect. 15:15
Crikey!
Beautiful Island and perfect bike for the job. Thanks.
Awesome TMF. You'll inspire many, myself included, to do this sort of thing!
You lucky man. Magnificent part of the world. Great vision from land and air. Looking forward to the next leg. Cheers.
This is the best of the best of your best videos, Sir. In my humblest of opinions, to be certain. I’m on my second watch. Thanks for taking me along!
Wow - thank you very much!
I love those single tracks so much... appreciate your vlog!!
I think this is my 2nd time of watching these and never tire from them. Nice to see you’re the new breed of rider who takes their time to enjoy the surroundings rather than hoping to make it home.
Glad you like them and thanks for watching twice!
When you held up the camera to show the view, I was just waiting for Ye White Van Boyoo! I would have laughed so much ha ha
Certainly an incredible atmosphere and thx for sharing some amazing scenery. Yes I agree with everything you have seen.
Your content and the quality of your videos are second to none. I thoroughly enjoy your videos my friend
Absolutely beautiful Drone shots, amazing video and county side!
Nice one TMF. Great video and ride with some fantastic and beautiful scenery
Gorgeous scenery great video, 22:50 Dam sheep will ewe get out of the road !!! safe riding my friend !
Very, very nice mr TMF, thank you for letting us come along with you !
Excellent video, the Drone just adds another dimension ! Looking forward to more. Cheers mate. Glenn
thanks for sharing this wonderful trip with us mr TMF
looking forward to pick up my first gs rallye and start touring around uk
Perfect Friday evening viewing material, thank you!
Nice views all over the Isle of Mull -- ancient and unspoilt lands
Appreciate showing the route on the map. Great video.
Once again great vid, nice drone shots, keep them coming.
The yellow plant you refer to is called Broom, you get it in N.I.& Scotland and in full bloom when suns out I has a coconut smell. Lovely part of the world
I just enjoyed your wonderful video film . Tks
Smashingly beautiful country! Luck man is the TMF!
That stretch of western Mull, the Gribun coastline, is so spectacular. Reminds me of a camping trip there 20 yrs ago when our three daughters were under 4, best family holiday we ever had. Started with a day of heavy rain and turned into bright sunshine and warmest location in the uk for 10 days. West coast can't be beat if you have the weather and a breeze to keep the midges away
15.28 I think that cottage glimpsed on the left is the holiday cottage my mother & father in-law used to use, just below the waterfall with the occasional eagle soaring on the clifftop and otters playing on the waters edge.
Waited all week for this! 30 minutes never felt so quick!
back to waiting for Episode 3!
Brilliant Cathy wait for next week
I'd say your drone is a welcome addition !And your adventures are quite entertaining. maj301
Excellent series so far Sir, fantastic views and you say it gets better, awesome drone shots for your first official flight.
Looking forward to the next part of the trip.
Stay tuned!
Beautiful spot the drone added to the whole experience.

Will do Pete - cheers!
Great series this TMF - loving it.
Excellent journey and safe riding skills demonstration
All great - the drone shots were particularly wonderful.
Good morning TMF thank you for the video and super scenery, and I’m sure you’re drone footage will be interesting etc.Take Care and catch you next.😎👍🇬🇧.
Stunning scenery, quality commentary, already waiting for the next instalment, the drone will definitely add another dimension to your videos, well done great video 👍
Enjoyed the second episode & look forward to the next one 👍
Drone footage was brilliant! Thank you for another great episode TMF
Got me chips and a bottle... er um glass of red and a TMF vid to watch!!
Really enjoyed that! Great scenery. Thank you for showing it to us. The drone shots were great.
Thanks for watching Roger....I get better with the drone ;0)
Looks amazing!
Great video. Makes me want to buy a bike and go touring! Look forward to the next episode
Love your tours, 1st class vids....
Thank you Carl - more to come!
Great week for TMF vids. Mon. excellent review on Speed Triple RS. Wed Great live chat. And Finally this awesome tour of West Scotland.
Thank you Martin - glad you approve! Stay tuned.....
Excellent brought back memories from 3 years ago which was my third visit. Photographers probably looking for the White tail sea eagles, the reason I go up there. Drone footage great.
Cheers OGB and thanks for watching - TMF
Always get a sense of achievement when I do the same(ish) route as one of my favourite TH-camrs!
Did Mull yesterday, absolutely blown away with it, like a mini Isle of Skye, but equally as impressive. Fionforte was a lot of effort for not much there, unless you're going to Iona.
Where you turned right to go to Salen, I went left and kept following the coast. The road between Dervaig and Balamory was unbelievable! A proper hidden gem.
I must get back up there asap! Great place eh?
@@TheMissendenFlyer absolutely mate! I took the return ferry from Lochaline to Fishnish, on and off Mull the same day, spent about 6 hours there, but could easily knock 2hrs off without going to Fionphort.
Thanks for the vid Andy, it gave me the inspiration to get onto Mull. 👍🏻👍🏻
Mixed emotions watching this, brought back memories of family holidays on Mull. Things are different now.
Wow !!!!!!! What a place to roam around !!!!!!!!! Wish I could visit it some day ............................
Wow loving the drone shots, amazing how the dynamic changes with this addition, great stuff :-)
Cheers Nick - glad you liked it!
Looks like an amazing trip, TMF. Brave of you to eat ferry food! 🏍👍🏍
Great video, really enjoying this series.
Watched to get some side trip ideas for my Scotland trip next week, nice, cheers matey Gaz 😎
Really enjoyed this video (watch a lot of your stuff). Thanks.
Thank you Patrick!
Loving your trips, I appreciate the time you also take to film/edit etc to share with us....keep em coming....
Regards

Another excellent video. I’ve done the same route - thoroughly enjoyable!
Another belting video Sir. Roll on the next instalment! I’ve taken to watching them with lunchtime sandwich; great stuff.
Great video. I agree with that Graham fellas comment. He's great ;). Congrats on the Mavic Air being introduced into the videos. It'll bring some great extra content /perspective.
Great video again the drone footage was fantastic 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Great to see places in Scotland I’ve yet to explore . Inspired , GHR
Awesome mate. Looks great on the smart TV.
Brings back some happy memories of childhood holidays. Looks great! The bit with the drone was a nice touch, like it. I’ve come down to London with the family for the weekend, popped over to Hyde park and got chatting with one of the security staff who was with his Tiger 1050. You were brought up in conversation, how about that. Me an exile Sunderland lad living in East Yorkshire and him a guy from London, chance meeting and both TMF subscribers. Bringing people together 🙂.
Fabulous!
Another great tour. Your making me miss riding in Scotland. I think it’s about time for another trip. Always enjoy your videos and your outlook on bikes and life in general.
Christian RT rider I agree. Love the idea of riding just for the fun of it. Especially with great scenery.
Cheers!
Wow, fantastic scenery.
...and it just gets better on this tour Mark - stay tuned for the next episode tomorrow!
Great commentary as usual TMF.Really enjoying this series.
Thanks - just published episode 3!
What a lovely ride. I absolutely must tour in the UK one day.
Beautiful landscapes. I prefer the single track roads. Small, smaller and the smallest ones as long as they are not offroad types. You se a lot more of the surroundings on these roads.
Love your touring video's and love to see more.
Very enjoyable. Great work mr TMF
Thank you...
Great vid ,loving the drone stuff “Bruce” will be proud .cheers 👍
Brilliant again mate like the drone shots
Lovely view of Mull there - that 'A' road looks fantastic :)
Loving the drone shots! This just brings a whole new dynamic to your already fantastic videos!
I must say though, you’re costing me a fortune! Every time I watch your videos I want to book a trip 😂😂
We were on that ferry when we were up there on the Whit bank holiday staying at Fort William, visited Tobermoray then back to the Moran peninsula and on to Glenfinnan Viaduct and Glenfinnan Station, then back to Fort William , fabulous days riding . Great video series. Next episode 3
BOB
Yes it's biking heaven up there isn't it....thanks for watching Bob!
Another fabulous video, brings back fond memories of a tour I did on my old 5th gen VFR over to Mull, we saw Dolphins right where you mentioned them! Looking forward to the rest of the series take care.
Great drone shots!
Great music choice with those drone shots!
